Where Darkness Lies is a distorted mind altering collection of poems; often disturbing this isn't for those who are looking for sunshine and rainbows. Mr. Perez tackles subjects such as: addiction, depression, death, and fantasies of destruction he sees through his eyes. There are no happy endings here. He gravitates to the demons of his heart and soul bringing out hell in every sense of the word. Captivated by the dark side, he isn't scared to leap into dark realms and chambers that lurk beneath this world. He creates a world full of obscurity and harsh reality that will leave you questioning your sanity.

The world gathers on a precipice over chaos: In the West, the God-Emperor Cardolyn Tyier broods over his vast conquests and plots the subjugation of all other kingdoms. To the South, the Kalvonder plutocracy continues their bloody entertainments, too invested in small schemes, transient vices and petty ascensions to notice one of their own has a far grander design. From the East, a legion of paladins embarks on a crusade of holy conquest against the secluded Northlands, intent on supplanting the land’s sovereign deity and crushing it beneath their pantheon. But these are children’s squabbles, for a forgotten evil hides behind these conflicts, amassing power and guiding humanity toward the precipice. The world has had many names for it, but men always called it the Muntalabacs: Dread Lords. The Avenar know one has resurfaced. They can feel his quiet footsteps resounding across the world and heralding the renewed conflict between their families. The Avenar are spent, though, and will need whatever help they can find, be it from eccentrics, outcasts or madmen

DescriptionDarkness & Light: a book of bipolar poetry explores living with bipolar disorder through a poetry medium. The poems not only detail the thoughts and feelings the disorder evokes at times, but also the effects it can have on other areas of life; such as relationships, and individual self esteem. The book mostly explores the depressive side of bipolar disorder, with the occasional ray of light and hope shining through the darkness encountered so often by those who have the disorder. All profits from the sales of the book will be used to further expand the Australian Bipolar Schizoaffective Network (ABSSN), an Australian mental health support organisation.

Long-lost friends arrive, new friends leave, passion burns, and mysteries abound. What is Light and what is Dark? Who can the Light Fae trust? Who will be left standing in the end and whose side will they be on? Nothing is ever as it seems, and all is fair in love and War of the Fae. Content Warning: Mild violence and significant foul language within. Meant for older Young Adult readers (age 15+).

The War of the Fae series is perhaps one of the best examples of this magical connection with her readers. Casey has created a whole world of characters that you very quickly care very much about." ~Lisa Ann, Reviewer on Goodreads “The drama flew through the roof. Jayne's powers are growing and the demand on her is insane. What I really loved about Call to Arms was the intricacy of the plot and how issues were placed against issues and desires were placed against desires to create a world that did not adhere to a strict and typical diet of 'paranormal young adult fantasy'. Jayne is still cracking jokes, is still cursing, is still making stupid decisions, is still relateable, still has ulterior motives, still is Jayne.” ~Marlon Balraj, Blogger and Reviewer at We Live and Breathe Books blog “Better and better. I can't think if a single thing in this series that I don't like and that is saying a lot. The further I get into it the more I can't stop reading. Definitely a series you want to read in order and well worth the read.” ~ Amazon Reviewer “Each book gives you more and more. Books 1,2,3 were fantastic. Each book after gives you more and more insight into each character. I am reading these books faster then most because the writer keeps me interested. The anticipation of the next twist is what keeps me wanting to turn the page.” ~ Margaret Thomas, Amazon Reviewer A message from the author: A reader fan recently set up a blog dedicated to casting the actors for the War of the Fae movie. No, it is not in production to be made into a movie, nor have I sold the rights to anyone for the movie. But just in case I ever do, my fans will be sure the casting director has a complete line-up ready! Check it out: ellecasey.com/WOTF_Movie

This novel by a New York Times–bestselling author follows three “bold, courageous, and entertaining” women through the tumult of the French Revolution (Booklist). For Claire Lacombe and Pauline Leon, two poor women of eighteenth-century France, the lofty ideals of the coming revolution could not seem more abstract. But when Claire sees the gaping disparity between the poverty she has known and the lavish lives of aristocrats as her theater group performs in their homes, and Pauline witnesses the execution of local bread riot leaders, both are driven to join the uprising. They, along with upper-class women like Madame Manon Roland, who ghostwrites speeches for her politician husband and runs a Parisian salon where revolutionaries gather, will play critical roles in the French people’s bloody battle for liberty and equality. Based on a true story, author Marge Piercy’s thrilling and scrupulously researched account shines with emotional depth and strikingly animated action. By interweaving their tales with the exploits of men whose names have become synonymous with the revolution, like Robespierre and Danton, Piercy reveals how the contributions of these courageous women may be lesser known, but no less important. Rich in detail and broad in scope, City of Darkness, City of Light is a riveting portrayal of an extraordinary era and the women who helped shape an important chapter in history.

For how beaEUR"eth it called blessing This spirit of doves To wander of a night's accursed steps To wander of a night's accursed steps blinded To wander lost! Where a heart's blessed love shall walk loveless Unto a savage dark lifestyle dwelling To remember lovingly yesterday's journey When wings fly high Yet today lie! Where a painful suffering fall shall crawl Unto a savage dark lifestyle devouring And Why cometh steps cursed Why light to night Where wings now fall to crawl Where wings now hail . . . his call! Yet fight a love's sight still For how beaEUR"eth a yesterday's blessed love So blinded! To walk of choice so binded To night

Fifteen years ago, a psychotic killer abducted seventeen-year-old Melissa Walker. For 83 days she was raped, tortured, and then left for dead in a deserted churchyard...but she was still alive. Melissa begins a new life as homicide inspector Sabrina Vaughn. With a new face and a new name, it's her job to hunt down murderers—a job she does very well. But when Michael O'Shea, a childhood acquaintance with a suspicious past, suddenly finds her, he brings to life the nightmare Sabrina has long since buried. Believing his sister was recently murdered by the same monster who attacked Sabrina, Michael is dead set on getting his revenge—using Sabrina as bait. Praise: Named a Best Debut of 2013 by Suspense Magazine "Prepare to be overwhelmed by the tension and moodiness that permeates this edgy thriller. Beaumont's ability to keep the twists coming even when the answer seems obvious is quite potent."—Library Journal (starred review) and Debut of the Month "Pulse-pounding terror, graphic violence and a loathsome killer."—Kirkus Reviews "Beaumont knows how to keep you on the edge of your seat...Buckle up for the ride of a lifetime."—Suspense Magazine "Maegan Beaumont might be new to thriller scene, but her debut thriller, Carved in Darkness, promises to be the first in a long line of novels. Be warned, however, this novel isn't for those who jump a mile every time they hear something go bump in the night. But for anyone who's ever dreamed about enacting a just revenge, this book is for you. Beaumont knows how to cook up and serve a dish called revenge, but she doesn't serve it cold. She serves it sizzling hot."—Vincent Zandri, bestselling author of The Remains and Murder by Moonlight
